Objective The effects of aerobic exercise on body weight loss in different environments were studied by comparing the changes of relative indexes between high temperature and high humidity and general environment. To provide certain reference basis for weight loss in aerobic training before competition of heavy competitive athletes. Methods Eight male freestyle wrestlers in Beijing were chosen as the research objects. The body weight, energy metabolism and serum ions were measured before and after one time aerobic exercise (50min,65%VO2max) in general environment (23℃/40%humidity), high temperature and high humidity(33℃/60%humidity).The data were statistically processed by SPSS19.0 software, and Paired-Samples T Test was selected for statistical analysis. Results Under the same physiological load, one time aerobic exercise was carried out in high temperature and high humidity and general environment, the weight of high temperature and high humidity group decreased 1.91%, the amplitude was slightly larger than that of general environment group. The energy metabolism in the hyperthermia and humidity group was 1.52g higher than that in the normal temperature and humidity group, the energy expenditure at 2 hours after exercise was 0.95% higher than that in the normal temperature and humidity group, and the energy metabolism during 8 hours sleep was 14.86% higher than that in the normal temperature and humidity group (p<0.05). Na+ and Cl- were significantly higher after general environmental exercise than before (P<0.05), while K +, Mg2 + were slightly lower than before exercise. After high temperature and humidity exercise, Mg2+ was significantly lower than that before (P<0.01). K+ decreased slightly, Na+, Cl-, Ca2+ was slightly higher than that before exercise. According to the change of ion index, aerobic exercise may have little adverse effect on the balance of internal environment under the condition of high temperature and high humidity, which can be improved by the supplement of electrolyte drink. Conclusions In high temperature and high humidity environment, aerobic exercise has a relatively good effect on weight loss. In order to reduce the change of internal environment, electrolyte drink can be added in the process of weight loss aerobic training. Athletes can withstand the weight reduction and control training at different ambient temperatures, subjectively accept the thermal environment. Therefore, the choice of high temperature and high humidity aerobic exercise in fast weight loss stage will be an effective means of weight loss before competition.

ABSTRACT This laboratory study investigated behavioural differences between adults and juveniles of the wetland land snail species Vertigo moulinsiana with respect to temperature and humidity. Juveniles of V. moulinsiana, for example, tend to remain within the shaded, humid and cool layer of the litter, while adults usually climb above wet vegetation to a height of over 2 m. Adults are thus exposed to greater variation in temperature and humidity than juveniles. My experiments showed that adults of V. moulinsiana remain active longer than juveniles when subject to high temperature (36 °C) and low relative humidity (RH 30%). Conversely, juveniles stay active longer than adults in high humidity (22 °C, RH 100%). A short period of starvation lengthened the time needed for the juveniles to become active after dormancy, possibly indicating a different response between adults and juveniles to lack of nutritional reserves. These behavioural differences to food availability and the risk of water loss correspond to the microhabitat differences observed between adults and juveniles in the wild.

Obesity is a modern disease and the cause is quite complicated. This study explores the effects of aerobic and resistance exercise on weight loss and their relationship with the PGC-1α/Irisin/UCP-1 signaling pathway. First, we selected 52 obese students for aerobic and resistance exercise. Second, we established an obesity rat model, and then subjected them to 12 weeks of aerobic and resistance exercise. The body weights and blood lipid contents of all the subjects were measured, and mRNA and protein expressions were determined via real-time PCR and western blot. In obese students, aerobic exercise and the combination of aerobic and resistance exercise significantly reduced body weight and blood lipid levels. In obese model rats, aerobic and resistance exercise significantly reduced the body weight, blood lipid levels, and increased the PGC-1, Irisin, and UCP-1 levels. Furthermore, the combined effects of aerobic and resistance exercise were similar to those of prolonged aerobic exercise in both human subjects and model rats. The mechanism of weight loss via aerobic and resistance exercise may be related to the PGC-1α/Irisin/UCP-1 pathway, and the combination of aerobic and resistance exercise may be a more suitable weight loss option for obese patients.

Because of the seldom research on temperature and humidity measurement of gas with high temperature and high humidity, workers in steaming workshops judge the temperature and humidity of steam in steamers on their subjective experience, which limits the accurate control of temperature and humidity of steam in steaming boxes. In reaction to the difficult measurement of high temperature and high humidity gas, a kind of electronic device has been developed to solve the problem. Through ingenious design of programming in assembly language and of electronic circuit, the device can automatically start an on chip heating element to prevent steam from condensing, and display the high temperature and relative humidity of steam in steamers. It will be propitious to break through the shackles of subjective experience, realize small changes in the temperature and humidity of steam in steaming boxes, and provide a basis and premise for controlling and regulating the temperature and humidity of steam. In addition, it will play an important role in gearing down the hygroscopic agent dosage, reducing the production cost, conserving energy, protecting environment and improving the quality of steaming.

Circulating BDNF is higher in women than in men and suggested to be affected by changes in food intake, body weight, and exercise. The purpose of this study was to compare BDNF concentrations in women and men during a 12-week weight loss intervention. Using a previously published 12-week randomized study, serum BDNF was assessed at baseline and after 12 weeks using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method. Fifty overweight or obese but healthy individuals (26 women, mean age of 36.4 ± 7.9 years; 24 men, mean age of 38.0 ± 5.9 years) were included and allocated into three groups: exercise-only (EXO; 12 weeks of aerobic exercise and isocaloric diet), diet-only (DIO; 8 weeks of very low energy diet (VLED 600 kcal/day) followed by a 4-week weight maintenance diet), or diet and exercise (DEX; 12 weeks of aerobic exercise in parallel with 8 weeks of VLED (800 kcal/day) followed by a 4-week weight maintenance diet). At baseline, BDNF levels were 25% higher in women compared to men (p=0.006). Body weight was reduced in all intervention groups (p<0.006). Exercise (EXO group) induced a 22% reduction in circulating BDNF in men (p=0.037) and women (p=0.080). In the DIO and DEX groups, a significant reduction in BDNF levels (29.9%; p=0.035 and 32.5%; p=0.003, respectively) was observed in women but not in men. In conclusion, circulating BDNF was significantly changed by diet alone or combined with exercise in women and only by exercise alone in men. This suggests that changes in circulating BDNF depend on weight loss methods (diet/exercise) as well as sex.
